One of the best graphic series I've ever read, if not the best -- beautifully and imaginatively drawn, with deep, moving stories that contain most every characteristic people look for in storytelling (intellect, humor, pathos, adventure, sorrow, joy, awe, sex, movie parodies, and a three-legged dog). What would your life become if you were suddenly transformed into a 1,200-pound hunk of ugly rock? Paul Chadwick answers that question from most every conceivable direction, often with unexpected, hilarious, exciting, and very touching results. The series hasn't lagged at all in quality so far--this third volume is just as good as the first, sometimes even better.

I love this series from Paul Chadwick. Concrete, the human turned into a concrete like superhero, now becomes more complex and unhappy about his condition. He is falling for Maureen Vonnegut. A scientist who is taking care of Concrete. But in the sidelines, she is secretly gaining information about Concretes condition to give some study for some group that wants to gain Concretes' power. I do not want to ruin the story. Overall a good read.
